I'm not using Rush as a fountain of knowledge. I don't listen to him. But some people will only believe Rush which is frightening.


Really frightening...lol.

I encourage people to ask me questions that are relevant to the topic at hand.

Of course, I also have the option to respond callously to stupid questions that are aimed to provoke something in others, like the one you posted to me earlier.

If you had noticed the fact that I joined the this forum in June 2008, it would be logical to assume that I wasn't around in 2007 to post about Obama and ACORN.

Reading your postings in the main politics forum, I'm not surprised at your behavior towards me.

Drawing puts Paul first Va GOP primary ballot, voters must pledge to support nominee in Nov - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/drawing-puts-paul-first-va-gop-primary-ballot-voters-must-pledge-to-support-nominee-in-nov/2011/12/28/gIQAFL6bMP_story.html - broken link)

Not good ... they closed the primary.

No doubt they did that to make sure Ron Paul has a much less chance of winning there.

I am beginning to officially hate the GOP ... Just goes to show, the GOP would rather have Obama in the WH than Paul.

They actually should all be closed imo. There is too much chance for manipulation by the other party when they are not.

I'm well familiar, and find it amusing that after the 2016 election, you are whining about the same electoral college referenced above.
